Excerpt from A List of the Birds of Maine: Showing Their Distribution by Counties, and Their Status in Each County; Prepared Under the Auspices of the United Oruithologist of Maine As all the previous lists of Maine birds are inaccessible to the majority of Ornithologists, it has seemed desirable to publish one in which our present knowledge of the distribution and status of the birds of the state may be given. Many records taken from the various Ornithological publications have been incorporated in the list. While it has seemed desirable to make this an annotated list, the chief aim of the notes is to point out the distribution and status of each species in the various counties of the state. Remarks regarding the habits, songs and migration dates of many birds are also included. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
